Cedar Planked Togarashi Salmon with Nori Pesto

Cedar Planked Togarashi Salmon with Nori Pesto
[open type="rte"]

Use a cedar plank for a simple and elegant way to grill fish in the summertime. The fish picks up smoky and woodsy flavors while staying moist from the steam of the grill. Our friends at Wildwood Grilling shared this simple grilled salmon recipe with an umami-packed nori pesto for serving. The recipe comes together with our Summer Grilling Capsule and can easily be customized with a poached egg or served alongside grilled vegetables.
